I suppose you could just as easily point out that Jesus provided health care by healing the sick, helping the lame, curing the blind and accepting the lepers (not to mention raising the dead), so I guess the only other question would be….how much did Jesus charge them?

And on another note, how many did Jesus ‘refuse’ to help, due to pre-existing conditions?

Do unto others, right? I hope my fellow Americans care about me as much as I care about them. Health Care will be a fact in 24 hours and this country will take one more step ACTING moral, rather than screaming MORALITY. I laugh every day when I see how those who label themselves the ‘Moral Majority’ and like to shout this is a ‘Christian Nation’ act as though they weren’t given a very simple guidebook to follow.

It’s really very easy.

Do unto others. Short and sweet.

Thanks for the article. =)

While I do not disagree that Jesus, unless he had changed a lot in the preceeding 2,000 years, would support health care, I think he would primarily be concerned, and even excited about, the many readily available choices in footware. Besides the varied and numerous kinds of tennis shoes on the market today, I think Jesus would be just plain thrilled with his choices in low priced yet high quality socks.

I also think that Jesus would find it difficult to tear himself away from the television set, inspite of being pummeled by hateful advirtisments by Satan himself, also known as the insurance industry. I am sure he wouldn’t miss the final four.

Lastly, if Jesus were here today, I think he would be thrilled by automotive travel. Let’s face it, compaired to his previous modes of travel, the modern day automobile just plain kicks ass.

Yes, he would almost certainly be for passage of any sort of health care bill. Then I imagine he would settle down somewhere in northern California, and get a good job in the wine-making industry.

No offense, but you could have converted your point across easier if the comparisons of Jesus were a little more subtle. Might just be me but I had to read this a few times to see what you clearly were saying.
